lyrics

You said, “The birds just fly away,
Look at their wings fill a sky of gray.”
But I told you why they always sing after the rain.
We can learn something from them.

The elephants they just roam,
You said, “It’s like they’ve got no home.”
But we’re both too young to know,
How fucking awful and beautiful it is to be alone.

And I know why you started writing those songs,
You couldn’t stop the words from pouring out like smoke,
And you heard her soft voice whisper in your blood.
Calypso singers hum inside your bones like Rimbaud’s ghost,
While your heart will surely roam,
Like those wild horses running home.

Like the butterfly falling out of its cocoon,
And like the daffodils dancing upon the hills,
You just want a little more room.
Because sometimes it takes a storm to make you bloom.

You said, “It’s never too soon.”
And just like the sun, your blankets cover the floor of my room.
We’re too goddamn old to not know,
This life will surely stain you blue.
But like a sunflower caught in the light,
I’m bending to you.
